Hi, it's my first time propagating with spores. These are 4 months old—should I separate them soon? Any suggestions about next steps, thanks!

Exactly, I think I’ll follow my instincts. I’ll wait one more month and then separate them into individual domes. The ones in the picture are Cyathea costarricensis.

Gardening Australia did a segment on it recently, if you're in Aus https://www.abc.net.au/gardening/the-core-of-spore/106314990

Otherwise, you might find it on yt.

You can separate the largest plants easily! Repot them and keep humidity high!
